VIRTUES AND JUDICIAL REASONING: AN ARETAIC PERSPECTIVE ON THE JUSTIFICATION OF LEGAL DECISIONS

Manuel Serrano — 2025-11-19

This paper explores the relevance of virtue ethics in judicial reasoning. Unlike deontological and consequentialist approaches, virtue jurisprudence emphasizes the judge’s character and moral dispositions as fundamental elements in legal argumentation. It adopts a critical and bibliographic methodology, analyzing texts through hermeneutic interpretation and drawing on tools from rational argumentation. The paper develops in three part. First, it analyzes the role of prudence (phrónesis) as a central epistemic virtue in legal interpretation. Second, it discusses various perspectives on the role of virtues in the justification of judicial decisions. Finally, it argues that the aretaic perspective offers a richer and more nuanced understanding of judicial argumentation by integrating both normative and dispositional elements into decision-making.

ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE AND EXPERT EVIDENCE. WHEN IT CANNOT BE PROVEN FROM THE NATURAL SCIENCES, BUT IT CAN BE PROVEN FROM THE SOCIAL SCIENCES

Ignacio Barlocci Mariño — 2025-11-19

A comparative approach is carried out between the conceptions of the environment and environmental damage existing in the National Constitutions of Argentina and Uruguay, in order to determine if they are conducive. Interdisciplinary debates about the environmental issue are visualized and how doctrine has marked the need to resort to social knowledge. This is relevant, since there is no scientific consensus about whether certain actions are harmful or not to the environment. These positions do not take into account that sociologists, anthropologists and/or psychologists are also scientists, and that within the social sciences the conclusion is unanimous that certain environmental events are harmful to the social aspects of human life. It is concluded that social expertise can determine the existence of environmental damage taking into account the regulatory definitions of the environment and environmental damage in Argentina and Uruguay.

THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT AND FEMINICIDE IN MEXICO

Cristian Alberto López Rodríguez — 2025-11-19

The jurisdiction exercised by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights has permeated Mexico's reality with respect to human rights violations perpetrated against young women. In the discouraging context of marginalization and inequality in which this group thrives, along with the prevalence of juvenicide, which occurs through the commission of the crime of femicide, the reparations contemplated by this contentious body represent hope for the eradication of this social problem in the country through gender-sensitive resolutions that establish mandatory reparations for the Mexican State, emphasizing the need for full compliance with these reparations in order to achieve the social benefit. The alarming incidence of this problem reveals a pending obligation on the part of state authorities. Meanwhile, the rulings of the judgments aim to heal the social fabric, with a special emphasis on vulnerable groups. In this specific case, the González et al. case ("Campo Algodonero"), which shook the national and international legal system. Through a documentary and legal review, the paper aims to analyze the significance of the Campo Algodonero case and the pending challenges regarding the issuance of the future ruling in the García Andrade et al. case, with respect to the real impact of these resolutions. This paper proposes a critical view of the role of Inter-American jurisprudence as an indicator of social transformation.
